Fossil bite marks suggest first evidence of a small raptor feeding on an apex predator
Prehistoric bite marks on an Albertosaurus fossil near Drumheller suggest either a small raptor scavenging on an apex predator or a shocking act of cannibalism by a baby Albertosaurus. The findings provide new insights into dinosaur behavior but remain controversial among experts.
